Hi Shlomi, 

Here are my observations of you remaster:

general:
--------
* Thin-Keramic is nice, but keramic is better if you want a better unified 
desktop
* qt3.2 has some issues, for example look in kicker for the hide buttons, also 
in kde3.2 there are issues with khtml, i could not test them since i had 
problems with iwiz, downgrade to qt3.1 please.
* iwiz should be in configuration menu
* iwiz should run as root (sudo or whatever?)
* iwiz does not run even in root, since it needs to wite in RO dirs:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] iwiz
ls: /usr/share/internet_db/connections/*.tar.gz: No such file or directory
tar (child): /usr/share/internet_db/connections/My Connection.tar.gz: Cannot 
open: Read-only file system
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
* localized graphics maybe?
* touch /etc/modules/2.4.22-xfs... and friends (they are older then other 
files)
* can you map the "win" key to the kemnu? (mdk does that)
* please add gtkgraph, or better program (kde based a BIG plus!)
things that may be removed without any problems:
* where is the show dektop button?
* mixer volume is is 50%, can it be put to 95%?
* qparted does not load
* xine is not setup up to play avi's by default
* the same for xmms
* set the default font in "konsole" to "console" please
* xmms-bidi? i see only garbage in files, try "LC_CTYPE=he_IL.ISO-8859-8 
biditext xmms" works in mdk9.2

- remove bochs
no default image. and why the hell do i need it in knopix?

- remove wine
hard to configure on real boxes.
no autodetection of any thing.
rarely works (from my experience)

+ bb ownz! (whwre can iget more of this?)
i have seen demos... but this is definetly my favorite (my other two are one 
for windows with great sound sync and another one from the 4k asm contest)

+ OO1 final!

+ gideon and not kdevelop!

full hebrew style
-----------------
* FireBird uses a diffedrent font for menu then system (kde)

lindows style
-------------
* please use ksplash-ml and set the splash to "xp"

mac style:
----------
* hack please the karamba theme to show the k menu on the right
* use the same background image as full hebrew style

Looks great btw, real love as been put into this project. Just need to fix 
some small things and you are done.

IMHO release kazit 2, before kde3.2 with kde3.1, since there are many problems 
regarding hebrew there. You may want to do kazit 2.1 with kde3.2 but IMHO 
kde3.2 will not be really do your remaster until kde3.2.2 or kde3.2.3. 
Stick to kde3.1.X.
